I got an update from Updox, the secure text thread is limited to a 48 hour of access to ensure security and HIPAA-compliance. The history never goes away for the patient-they only lose their ability to view it without an active link. The history for the Updox user never goes away and can be viewed once the user initiates a new Secure Text with the patient. So I am still going to have the patient screen shot any document or report they want to keep, because otherwise I will have to send a secure text prompt to view the report after 48 hours to get the history to show up on the patients phone.
